Just captured the most amazing rainbow I have ever seen!

Can’t believe what I’m hearing on Radio 4 Today. China’s no saint, but pretending this trade war is anyone’s fault but the crazy orange man in the US is ridiculous. All China’s done is what any country should have done, stand up to Trump. #r4today

I accidentally discovered that there is a weird magnetic spot on my laptop that will make a paperclip stand up, so I had to add googly eyes and make my own personal Clippy

We’re heading for an inevitably unstable and dangerous time. Whether from dwindling resources fueling tech-driven land grabs (e.g., Ukraine, Greenland), climate change, or trickle-up economics squeezing the last drops of value from the people. The groundwork is already being laid.

Justin Welby “forgives” serial abuser John Smyth? How about you leave the forgiveness to those who were actually impacted by Smyth’s actions? What a self-righteous little man.

Why aren’t you wearing a suit? Have you said “Thank you” to Greenland and Denmark for allowing you to have a base on Greenland?

Record 4.5m UK children are living in poverty. They are likely to face health, educational and employment problems. Yet govts hit the poor - low wages, two child benefit cap, disability benefit cut, unchecked profiteering, poor housing. Save the future. Demand redistribution.

@garyseconomics.bsky.social perfectly describing the breakdown of the social contract in late stage capitalism. Work hard, do everything right, and you can no longer get by #bbcqt

Call me a pessimist, but I genuinely believe Trump announced 25% tariffs on car imports at least partly to distract from SignalGate. He’ll backtrack in a few days, and the uproar over using a compromised messaging app for classified discussions will fade from the headlines. #r4today

If Palestine is the litmus test everybody has failed it, so it's not a surprise the West is in a dire State. The same men bombing brown & Black people indiscriminately will also snatch your white elderly Mom's social security. That's why fighting for rights can't be selective. Everybody or nobody.

Funny how the UK/Western media can downplay issues at home while losing their minds when another country does the same. An example of this currently playing out is Trump’s plans to undermine democracy vs. how they talk about Erdogan’s attempts at doing the same.

Matt Hancock calling people “naive” for highlighting the blatant corruption of the VIP Lane for PPE procurement is infuriating. There’s nothing worse than seeing something undeniably clear, only to be gaslit into doubting reality. #r4today

With two judges ruling that the termination of over 25,000 federal workers by Doge & Trump was illegal, it raises the question: Was firing them ultimately more costly and less efficient than allowing them to continue working?

I’m interested in understanding those who lament the destruction of the “world order” by Donald Trump. I get why we’re against the U.S. becoming more fascist. But the world order that has systematically subjugated the Global South: the majority of the world? No. I’ll happily watch it burn.

A month into Trump’s presidency & the use of DOGE, efforts to bypass Congress and threaten other nations’ sovereignty are proving less effective than the media suggests. The world is taking notice, shifting left, and if Americans don’t push back, the U.S. risks losing more than its global influence
